By George Romieu Friends, this evening you are going to hear the customary class day exercises of the Enfield High school. The one big difference in our class is that it is the first class to graduate from Enfield, that has gone through the terrible four years of the war and epidemics. The world at last is beginning to settle down, and we hope that it will remain at peace for- ever. The program we have arranged for this evening we hope will be enjoyable to all, and in behalf of the class of nineteen-nineteen I extend to you all a most hearty welcome. HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1919. By William Manning It scarcely seems four years since the class of nineteen-nineteen en- tered the Enfield Public High School. It was a green bunch of “frosh” that strolled into the corridors of the building that first morning. We hardly knew whether to turn to the left or to the right. However, we were soon relieved from this embarrassing situation by Miss Cary and Miss Parkman, who escorted the commercial people into room 8, the gen- erals into room 9, and the classicals into room 11. To say that we were dazzled by the beauty of the building, would not be quite true, for the first thing we noticed was the gloomy appearance of the rooms. Some of us had just come from the Al in D. Higgins school where the walls and ceilings were white, and the dark appearance of the high school presented quite a contrast. We had a glorious time the first day, as it took some time to get the schedule into working order.
